Guild Wars 2

This is great news. A vast majority of the WvW players on my server do not spend much time if any at all on the forums, but know my map chat and guild chat are a buzz with jubilation at this news.

Sorry you were not online when we discussed this tactic. The fact that they had glitched a tower earlier in the day did not actually pre-empt any of this. Simply added that to use it as motivation for Yaks Bend players.

Goal is simply to swap Ehmry Bay with Dragonbrand. Adding diversity into the server reset trying to stimulate more activity in WvW rather than a stagnant match up.

As a result of the two Keeps that were taken using exploits on Yaks Bend Borderlands we are going to focus Ehmry Bay. I have made this agreement with a majority of the Commanders on Yaks Bend, this will be until server reset.

Given the current scores and calculating in SPT (score per tick) Ehmry Bay will only be 10 points above Dragonbrand in ranking upon reset. I’d like to see Ehmry Bay dropped this week into Div. 5.

Factors that affect this:
Ehmry Bay’s SPT
Dragonbrand’s SPT

As we have no influence over Dragonbrand’s SPT, we will focus on keeping Ehmry Bay’s SPT as low as possible over the next 24 hour period.

I’m not a advocating a double team. This is what we are doing and that is why, do what you want with this information.

So your gonna punish a whole server for someone hacking that noone caught on frags etc, Stay classy yaks, well done

We are bored with your play style. Simply put we would rather have a different opponent.

Control your server please in the future. It may have been one player that used the exploit, but the 40 players that then accessed his portal are just as guilty of using an exploit.

I am also posting this in here to see if I can encourage a last push from Dragonbrand before reset tomorrow. We would much rather have you here next week then Ehmry Bay.

I am not picking favorites between the 3 teams in your Div. Dragonbrand simply is the closest to Ehmry Bay’s rank.

Yes please take screen shots. Get as much evidence as possible and report them. I can only speak as a members of the Yaks alliance but we would love to have every cheater/bot removed from our server.

@Maniac

I was more referring to the keep siege, specifically it might have been simply lack of people to man things but it didn’t seem like it was arrange very effectively. To the point we just had to walk from point to point inside the keep to and wipe the siege and then we were okay (seemed like the pillars got in your way a lot. If you place your various groups of siege with clear lines of sight to each other it might have helped when we got in so the siege could have protect each other better. You did a tremendous job defending especially as your numbers started to whittle away at the end. Great job scouting our treb sites also really slowed down our progress.

Was good fun, getting the keep. Next time your defending like that though perhaps try and create more of a choke point at the door, a cata simply to knock people onto the ground as they came in and keep them in the AoE(Arrow cart AoE with cripples and bleeds) longer goes a long way. But expect them to get inside also so have spots in the back such as holding the upper walls would be a good place. But you need to make sure you can reinforce safely. As those walls are so long and narrow a ballista works great for holding them, they allows you to create another choke point on the stairs.

This was on the FA map at the same time. Kind of bored so just having some fun.

Heartless and Etsmith, I think you both should just drop it.

I hope we can all improve in same way from this matchup.

To me it’s slightly annoying that a higher tier server guild would see the SoR v YB v NSP being was so close and decide to join the server that won resulting in a complete throw out of the balance.

It’s a shame that currently our main alliance only has enough population to cover a couple borderlands on the weekend, and often less that enough for one borderland during the week.

Once Anet implements new things for removing bots it might help. I’d say at any given time 10-20 spots on a borderland are being occupied by bots. Perhaps the afk timer needs to be a little faster also.

Some nice info to have from Anet before free server transfers are up would be a chart that shows server queue times for the 4 battlegrounds across a 24 hour period.

There are people that want to win, and then people that want to play, give 1 more week of free server transfers anywhere with this information available. Then after that

Maintain free transfers to low queue time servers
800 Gems to higher queue time servers

This could easily be abused. One could easily see when their opponent has no queue time, then plan attacks accordingly abusing the population discrepancy.

For my server the problem is consistency. We had 2 hour wait times at some points over the weekend. But for several hours on multiple borderlands we now have the outmanned bonus.

SOR and GOM have 2 choices.

A. fight it out for second place.

B. A temporary truce. Each stays out of the others home BG. The 3rd place team at noon server gets EB the other Yaks. Last night we did more damage to each other than we did collectively to Yaks. the results of this folly speak for themselves. The only way to offset the gross disparity of numbers is to split Yaks in half and make them earn their points the old fashioned way.

As a Yak player I like this idea. You both say out of each others BG, this will make crushing you easier. Then we get our BG and both of yours. Feel free to fight over EB. But as we all had to queue we simply made better use of our numbers. We made sure we had a quick response time to all pressure and attacked on multiple fronts.

Great first night.

Currently the only maps GoM owns anything on would be its own map, and EB.

You should check the map again. As of right now YB owns GoM.
